green light will become an amber light. This is the

a red light. You should change the filter as soon as possible at
this time. After the filter cartridge has been changed, press
the words that say "Filter Light Reset'L If the light was red or
amber, you wilt need to press for 3-5 seconds to reset to
green (the green light will flash when reset is complete)If the
